test: cover non-finite results and color-group disjointness
The two gaps #26 named that were never filled. NonFiniteResult had no test at all — the name appeared in `tests/` only inside a doc comment, and it is the sub-claim in that issue's title. It turns out to be very much reachable, and from *finite* inputs: sigma at 1e300, beta at 1e300, sigma at 1e-300, score_sigma at 1e-300, and scores at 1e308 all overflow inside inference, where the boundary checks cannot see them. That matters because the failure is silent by default — NaN fails every comparison, so a naive `step < epsilon` reads a NaN step as converged, which is why the crate has `step_converged`/`step_is_finite`. Pinned from outside, including that `converge_partial` does not launder a breakdown into an `Ok`, and with a control asserting merely extreme parameters still converge so the suite cannot pass by always failing. Color-group disjointness was #26's fourth acceptance criterion and had only five hand-written cases. Now a proptest over three shapes: a dense pool where collisions force colors to multiply, a sparse one where most events are independent, and repeated members within a single event. Two of my first assertions were wrong about the code rather than the reverse. A competitor named twice *within* one event is not a collision — `color_greedy` collects each event's members into a set for that reason. And contiguity is not a property of `color_greedy`: it holds only after `recompute_color_groups` reorders events so each color occupies one range. The test now asserts what is actually promised — that the reorder is always *possible*, since the parallel sweep slices `&mut` sub-ranges from those groups and overlapping ranges would be unsound.

//! Inference must report numerical breakdown rather than call it convergence.
|

//!
|
||||
//! The boundary rejects inputs that are *not numbers*, but finite inputs can
|
||||
//! still overflow during inference — `beta.powi(2)` at 1e300 is infinite, and
|
||||
//! infinity minus infinity is NaN. `NonFiniteResult` is the guard for that, and
|
||||
//! it matters because the alternative is silent: NaN fails every comparison, so
|
||||
//! a naive `step < epsilon` check reads a NaN step as *converged*.
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! That is why the crate has `step_converged` / `step_is_finite` rather than
|
||||
//! `!tuple_gt(..)`. These tests pin the guard from outside.
